Before Your Visit

Gather the patient's complete medical history — chronic diseases, medications, allergies, previous surgeries
Bring all previous medical records and recent investigation reports
Identify one family spokesperson to communicate with the ICU team to avoid confusion
Keep health insurance documents and emergency contacts ready

During the Appointment

Ask for daily updates at a fixed time from the ICU team
Understand that ICU recovery is measured in days and weeks, not hours
Follow infection control protocols strictly — hand hygiene, gown, mask as required
Ask questions during rounds — write them down beforehand so you don't forget

After the Visit

Follow discharge instructions meticulously — ICU survivors need careful step-down care
Arrange home nursing or physiotherapy if recommended for recovery
Watch for post-ICU complications — muscle weakness, cognitive changes, depression are common
Schedule follow-up appointments with the intensivist and relevant specialists

An Intensivist (Critical Care specialist) manages patients in the ICU with life-threatening conditions requiring close monitoring and organ support.

Intensivists work in hospitals only. If your loved one is in the ICU, the intensivist is leading their care.
